Yes, deep tissue detoxification usually happens when you do sweat baths at a spa and get lymphatic drainage massage. But if that is not an option for you, the HTMA diet and supplement schedule, is the most effective way to detox the body that very few of the many health experts realize. For over four decades of reviewing HTMA results with patients the most unexpected outcome is the toxicity reaction from heavy metals coming into the blood stream that occurs when following the diet and supplement schedule. The program helps get the right minerals into the body's cells and then they are getting what they need and in rapid fashion they start cleaning house; that is dumping out all of their toxins. The intensive detox is imminent when all of your fifty trillion cells do this simultaneously. The result is your bloodstream is inundated with an intense toxic burden that causes discomfort. Now it would be good to review some back ground on this profound phenomena and why the HTMA is so important. The US Environmental Protection Agency, in a review of over 400 studies in 1979, found hair analysis to be a reliable indicator for the presence of many of the toxic metals. Hair gives a record of the body;s exposure over time and the metals are easy to detect and measure accurately in the hair tissue. However , hair testing only reveals what is in the hair, not the entire body load. The only way to measure the entire body load of a metal would be to biopsy every organ and tissue. This is of course impossible so the next best indicator is the mineral assay showing the metals in the hair. To be clear, hair is not a target tissue for toxic metals, but it is a tissue made of cells by the body's hair follicle and this record gives us a congruent correlation about the activity of the minerals in all of our cells. Included in the reports is the diet and supplement schedule to follow and in most cases the cells get stronger and will rapidly damp toxins. However this is not always the case. Reasons why some toxic metals may not be eliminated fast is due to several factors: If the metabolic or oxidation rate is slow, the body has less ability to eliminate toxic metals. They remain sequestered in other tissues and organs and will not show up in the hair. For this reason, those with a faster rate of metabolism, or fast oxidizers, often test with higher hair levels of toxic metals. They are not necessarily more toxins in these individuals, but they will eliminate metals quicker because of their fast metabolism. In all cases a nutritional balancing program is required to promote the elimination of the toxic metals and promote natural detoxification. The dietary and supplement program not only enhances the oxidation rate, but provides toxic metal antagonists, chelating agents and enhances the activities of the eliminative organs of the body. These measures greatly assist the body in eliminating the toxic metals, causing them to be revealed on hair analysis tests as they are being eliminated. These programs support the biochemical balance of the body and are quite different from simply giving powerful chelating agents or other methods that may unbalance body chemistry. Even with these measures, toxic metals stored deep within the tissues can take years before the body is able to eliminate them. For example, a patient smoked during her pregnancy and when she was a child. Cigarettes are a source of cadmium toxicity. However, it took about eight years on a nutritional balancing program before cadmium ever registered on his hair analyses. The same phenomenon can occur with mercury, arsenic and the other toxic metals. Once the HTMA is followed lymphatic drainage massage can help the body speed up the release of heavy metal toxins out of the body.
